Chapter 178: Even Though He Is Sealed, He Is Still the Demon King

The partner changed from Miyuki to Kaoru Yui, which had a great influence on Sawamura Eijun.

Even ordinary people who eat melons can see this. There are many sharp change shots, and Sawamura Eijun has no way to use them anymore. Now all he can rely on is his ordinary shot.

If facing an ordinary opponent, even if Sawamura Eijun suffered such a weakening, the impact would not be great.

Even if you only rely on weird balls and ordinary straight balls, plus Sawamura Eijun's own peculiar pitching posture, as well as his current ball speed and power.

He is also a guy who gives opponents a headache.

It is definitely not easy to get a hit from him.

It is very difficult to even score a hit, let alone score.

But the problem is, what Eijun Sawamura is facing now is not an ordinary opponent, but all the top star players in West Tokyo.

Their strength is so strong that they are three points stronger than the original Tokyo team.

This is not the scariest thing, the scariest thing is that one of these guys has witnessed the growth of Eijun Sawamura with his own eyes, and he has grown up with Eijun Sawamura all the way.

They know Sawamura Eijun even better than Sawamura's teammates on Seido High's baseball team.

As the saying goes, the person who knows you best is often not necessarily your friend, but your enemy.

Your friends don't necessarily spend all their energy researching you. But your enemies will definitely try their best to exhaust everything they can to study you.

Especially in this place in West Tokyo.

The existence of Sawamura Eijun is a huge stumbling block for the team aspiring to win the West Tokyo Championship. As long as they have such ambitions, they must find ways to remove this stumbling block.

Under such circumstances, their research on Sawamura Eijun has already reached a pervasive state.

His pitching posture, pitching characteristics, pitching habits.

These guys in front of me know everything.

Although when playing in West Tokyo before,

They didn't do anything to Sawamura, and they didn't get many points from Sawamura Eijun.

But that doesn't mean their efforts were in vain.

At that time, Sawamura was in a perfect state.

Plus that level-four changeup he pops out of nowhere.

These opponents were so dizzy for a moment that they didn't have time to fight back.

To put it bluntly, the Seido High School baseball team and Sawamura Eijun kept their cards so well that they were caught without any precautions.

But now it's different!

After Sawamura Eijun changed his partner, his own strength was weakened by 70% to 80%.

Coupled with the level four change ball, it was completely banned.

"That way, even I have the confidence to hit the ball out."

Mishima stared at Eijun Sawamura on the mound with a burning gaze, his eyes burning with excitement.

Although he was not fully sure, he said that he could definitely get rid of Sawamura Eijun and hit Sawamura Eijun's ball.

But he has a lot of confidence.

He is confident that relying on his current strength, he can confront Sawamura head-on.

That alone is very, very difficult.

Facing an opponent that he was once invincible, now he can emerge with such confidence.

Mishima must have made careful arrangements before going on the field to attack.

coming!

It's too late to say it's too late, the white ball whizzed towards it.

Sawamura Eijun behaved very normally when faced with such a crisis.

It seems that he didn't take it to heart at all, and shot the ball according to his previous rhythm.

The timing was so good that even Mishima didn't realize it.

When he came back to his senses, the white ball had already crossed a distance of 18 meters and landed in You Jingxun's glove.

"Snapped!"

After the baseball got into the glove, it made a muffled sound.

After hearing this muffled sound, everyone frowned.

The hearts of the boys from Qingdao High School's baseball team sank.

You can tell from the sound that although Yu Jingxun caught the ball, he didn't catch it well.

How could they not be worried?

On the other side, the players of the Tokyo Star Team naturally heard it too. However, they didn't show any relief on their faces, instead, their faces were sinking like water.

Even when it's not pitched well, the baseball makes such a loud noise!

From this, it is not difficult to see how strong the tail force of this ball is.

Judging from their own feelings, even if the hitter touches the ball with the bat, it may be difficult to hit the ball well.

Mishima in the strike zone felt the most obvious.

Originally, he was relatively relaxed, thinking that there must be a difference in performance between Sawamura Eijun at this time and Sawamura Eijun in the West Tokyo final.

But now it looks like he was naive.

The reason why Sawamura Eijun was able to become a famous super devil all over the country is not only because of having a good partner.

You must know that his title of Great Demon King has already been called when he was in the baseball team of Akagi Middle School.

Having a good partner, especially a partner like Miyuki, can make one's own strength rise and explode to 110% or even 120% strength.

Nasawa Village is naturally very happy and happy.

But what if there is no such partner?

Nasawamura Eijun also wanted to fight.

As long as the catcher's level is not too low, he can catch his ball.

Then Sawamura Eijun can explode to a certain extent of his own strength.

Like now.

If the players of the Tokyo Stars thought they were toothless tigers, they were dead wrong.

When Sawamura Eijun proposed such a competition, he never thought of losing.

He also hopes to win this game, so that the players' confidence will be doubled.

"Whoosh..."

Immediately after the first pitch, Eijun Sawamura's second pitch was thrown.

Having suffered a loss before, Mishima will naturally not be negligent this time.

Seeing the flying white ball, he gritted his teeth and pushed out the bat in his hand.

"Ping!"

After the white ball was hit, it rolled out.

"The outside world!"

The baseball barely landed on the field, but rolled out of bounds.

Mishima looked as if he had caught the rhythm of Eijun Sawamura's pitch.

The momentum of the attacking party skyrocketed.

But Mishima himself faced such a situation, but he didn't show the slightest smile on his face.

Considering this guy's previous personality, his behavior like this shows that he is quite nervous now.

To put it bluntly, in the duel, Mishima felt that he was at a disadvantage.

"This is two strikes!"

Kaoru Yui at the catcher's position gave Eijun Sawamura a signal and looked at the mound expectantly.

Not to mention the two catchers in the third grade, even the two catchers Aomura and Matsumoto who are also in the first grade.

They also outstrip themselves in receiving the ball.

Before entering the baseball team of Qingdao High School, Yujing Xun never thought that there are so many players of the same age who are stronger than himself.

You know he has always been the captain of the national team.

This kind of cognition dealt him an overwhelming blow.

Although it is not bad in terms of overall strength, it is even slightly higher.

But isn't the most important thing for a catcher is to catch the ball?

If you can't even catch the ball well, what's the use of it?

In the past six months, Youjing Xun has been actively practicing.

He didn't know how much worse his current ability to catch the ball was compared with those two friends?

But there is one thing Yujing Kaoru knows.

That means he has improved!

"Don't worry, vote for it senior, I will definitely accept it!"

Sawamura on the mound looked at Kaoru Yui like this.

It felt very strange.

He was a little relieved, but also a little helpless.

The gratification is the gratification of the younger brother's growth in elementary school, but the helplessness is because he plays the piano randomly.

Forget it, the juniors have already said so, plus he is a catcher.

"Then you must catch it, or I won't spare you!"

Sawamura, who was on the pitcher's mound, finally chose to give his elementary school boy a chance, opened up his posture, and threw the ball.

coming!

Like a ray of white light, the white ball instantly traveled a distance of more than ten meters and appeared in front of Mishima.

Mishima's heart tightened, he gritted his teeth, and swung his stick.

Straight ball or just plain quirky ball!

In this case, he can only swing the bat with all his strength, trying to get the ball out with brute force.

Unfortunately, Mishima guessed wrong.

On the eve of approaching his hand, the ball suddenly dropped rapidly.

A fork ball!

And it's a finger ball with a very high drop.

How dare he?

At this time, Mishima was puzzled.

But his doubts were quickly resolved, because behind him, there was the sound of a ball getting into a glove.

"Snapped!"

"nice shot!!"

"strike out!!!"
